Right wingers believe everything should be up to the individual, you should get no help from anyone else. Typically with the ironic championing of corporations over people.
Left wingers believe we’re stronger if we work together in the public interest.
Healthcare is just one small slice of the political pie, which is such an obvious human right that only the fascist fuckos you have over there think it’s up for debate
What did you shoot the picture on?
What happens if you pull the image into an image editor?
Yeah, you’re completely right, I was more going for not impossible, but it’s even more luck than I realised
Well, impossible to do with certainty.
But people are paid to try and do it at investment banks, and with enough outsider knowledge they can often get it right
Of course that’s practically just gambling at a much greater scale
Turkey is an amazing country with amazing people in it
The unfortunate part is their leader is the opposite and is currently holding their country and people hostage
They hate VPNs
Well, that’s because they get less data about you when you use a VPN. Google being Google are not gonna love that are they?
Antidisestablishmentarianism
opposition to the disestablishment of the Church of England
Also bonus Welsh town name:
Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch
Literally translated, the long form of the name means: “[The] church of [St.] Mary (Llanfair) [of the] pool (pwll) of the white hazels (gwyn gyll) near to [lit. “over against”] (go ger) the fierce whirlpool (y chwyrn drobwll) [and] the church of [St.] Tysilio (Llantysilio) of the red cave (gogo[f] goch)”
You’ve definitely found them and you’ve already picked a few of my favourite tracks—I’m happy to have introduced you
Everything Everything
They’ve written some of my favourite albums over the past decade or so
Firstly it’s a fraction of a percent of the pool of people working as entertainers that get paid anything close to a comfortable salary—many don’t even last a few years and make basically nothing before they change careers.
The successful ones get paid a load basically because the people that invest in funding TV shows & films know that you can generally multiply your investment by attaching a household name to the project. Now this is for several reasons, firstly a household name will generally actually be a good actor. Secondly, people recognising a member of your cast means they’re generally more likely to watch it. Finally, there’s the effect on the rest of the casting—some studios might take the opportunity to push the compensation of the “no-name” actors down because they have an opportunity to work with a star, others might go the other way and use the first star in negotiations to get additional starts signed on to the project.
So essentially, the big projects make a lot of money, and executives attribute a significant part of that generated value to having the big star involved, and so they portion the funding to ensure that happens.
There’s also the negotiation factor on long running shows, main characters end up in good negotiation positions for more money if a show is successful and their character isn’t easy to kill off. This is also why Netflix tries to cancel stuff before the 3rd season—that’s about the point who holds the power in negotiations shifts away from the studio.
An in-demand actor is a finite resource, they can only really work on one or two projects at any given time, so this also pushes their fees up as projects may end up in bidding wars. Conversely most entertainment costs very little to sell beyond the initial production costs, so after that’s broken even it’s free profit they can use for these fees.
Tl;dr capitalism
Probably true, worth pointing out I browse with the “old.” theme when I’m at my computer which doesn’t come out bad at all given it’s pretty basic HTML (just tried it on my phone too, which is something I wasn’t sure would give a good result)
You’re right though, it would be a good pull request to the Lemmy UI to add a print stylesheet
I was going to say this but using the print to PDF functionality in most OSes
Treating it like a joke because half the GOP are probably implicated in some way and this is a flimsy attempt at minimisation
what is this? I googled and found nothing
Ah I got my history slightly wrong, she bathed in donkey milk and just liked asps (a kind of snake)
Maybe coconut water or aloe vera gel, I imagine it’d feel weird but probably not regrettable.
I guess we’ve got to beat Cleopatra as our baseline with her bath of asp milk.
Marmite would probably veer into the regrettable category, and I’m saying that as a marmite enjoyer
Truly and harrowingly sadly:
Conservative voters hate trans people simply because they’re told to
Conservative politicians tell their voters to hate trans people because it distracts the voters whilst the politician robs them (of their rights, their potential or simply their actual fucking money)
It’s currently trans people because the previous victim roster of gay dudes and middle eastern people just isn’t cutting it any more.
What is extremely political to one person is just someone simply existing to another.
The term “no politics” in internet communities often actually means “only things that align with my politics”. I’ve seen it over and over again for as long as I can remember
Nice bit of spicy Linus to start the day.
Good though, these dinosaur maintainers really need to wind their necks in. From what I’ve seen so far, Rust is the best tool for the job in the situations where it’s been used. I struggle to see anything more from the detractors than a toddler tantrum about having to learn a new language—particularly given the current situation where they’ve been treated with kid gloves and are allowed to ignore it entirely.
Honestly if you’re not putting the internet and the general proliferation of personal computers and then smartphones in the “truly innovative” category, then I’m not sure anything will make the cut—I’d make the argument that both are more innovative than flight which is something we can observe in nature.
You can’t guarantee you are able to delete anything you post publicly to the internet anyway.
Once it’s public, web crawlers can take a copy of it, entirely independent of any kind of federation.
There were several sites dedicated to letting people “undelete” Reddit comments, for example.
